New Balance: a bit of Brand History

Over a century of passion and hard work has solidified this brand's position in the sports apparel scene. This company was born in 1906 from an English immigrant, William J. Riley, who established the New Balance Arch Support Company in Boston. The company initially produced arch supports and accessories aimed at enhancing the fit of footwear.
In 1956, William handed over the company to his daughter Eleanor and her husband, Paul Kidd. Within a few years, they developed the first athletic shoe, the Trackster. This footwear featured grooves in the sole for improved traction and was available in various widths. With this invention, New Balance gained recognition as an innovative company producing cutting-edge shoes.
With this invention, New Balance gained fame as an innovative company producing cutting-edge shoes. Under the leadership of the new president, Jim Davis, in 1972, the brand made its debut at the Boston Marathon. From that point on, the company increased its production, quickly becoming a global giant renowned for high quality, attention to detail, and excellent customer service.
Currently, New Balance is led by President James Davis and CEO Robert T. De Martini, maintaining its headquarters in Boston and consistently upholding its leading position in the sportswear category. Beyond the unquestionable quality of materials and stylish design, the value of this manufacturing house lies in its commitment to retaining the majority of production in the United States, with factories in Maine and Massachusetts, as well as in the United Kingdom with a facility in Cumbria County.
